SANA'S POV

"What are you guys doing?" I asked the girls as soon as I entered the Hirai's guest room.

"Collecting clothes." Tzuyu answered.

"For what?" My eyebrows crossed. They looked at me confusingly. "What?"

"You don't know?" Jeong asked.

"What do you mean? What do you guys know that I don't know?" I asked them. They stopped from arranging their clothes and walked towards me. "Okay, guys, you're getting creepy." I told them.

Mina sighed, "Do you know where Tae goes every night?" I didn't answer. Did Tae told them where he goes?

"Why do you know about this stuff?" I asked them seriously. They looked at each other first. Seriously, I am getting pissed. Why didn't Tae told me about this?!

"Because of Jimin." Chae answered.
"What the heck?" I said unbelievably. "Tell me the truth guys. Tae has a girl besides me, right?" They didn't answer. "TELL ME!"

"No, he has not!" Jihyo was the one who answered me. "C'mon, Sana, do you think Tae will cheat on you? He loves you so much! What made you think that?" I was shut up.

"Don't you trust him?" Nayeon placed her hand on my left shoulder.

"I-I trust him." I answered.

"Then what made you think that?" Tzuyu asked. I sighed.

"Maybe I'm just one heck of a paranoid woman." Silence passed by.

"He goes to work every night." Dahyun answered. "Jimin was the one who helped Taehyung to get a job."

"We saw Tae once on a café. He's on the counter." Tzuyu added. "Of course we asked him why is he working there and he answered us. He told us that he can't talk at that moment because he will be fired."

"See, Sana? There's no reason for you to be mad." Momo assured me.

"What's the clothes for?" I asked them.

Mina chuckled, "We're helping Tae."

"You're going to...?"

"Sell these clothes online." Nayeon smiled. "Did you know why Tae is working?"

"For her sister?" I guessed.

"For you, silly." She pinched my cheek. I was dumbfounded for a moment.

"F-For me?" They all nodded. "Why?"

"He's earning for the big day." Jihyo said. "The moment that he'll ask you to be his girlfriend."

"You said you love him, right?" Chae pointed me using her index finger.

"W-What?" My face is becoming red. "W--"

"Tss. We heard you earlier shout those three magic words, Sana." Tzuyu crossed her arms. "Don't deny it though."

"Alright," I raised both of my hands, saying that I am defeated. "I-I shouted it out of the blue."

"That means that you really love him, right?" Mina said. "You said it involuntarily."

"And you wondered why Tae didn't ask you to be his girlfriend. Am I right?" Momo asked me and I nodded. "That's because he wants his proposal to be huge for a girl like you."

"It's fine for me if the proposal isn't grand." I pouted.

"For you. How about for Tae? Of course he wants you to remember that big day." Jeong said.

"I remember all of the moments I've had with Tae. What's the difference?" I told them.

"This one is more special, 4D!" Dahyun looked like she's going to give up on trying to make me understand.

"Every moment is special for me when I'm with him." I told them.

"Do you know what's the problem here?" Jihyo said.

"What?"

"You can't wait!" She exclaimed. "Why don't you propose to him? You're rushing."

"But that will make me less of a woman." I answered.

"Are you a woman to start with?" I glared at Tzuyu. "You're a squirrel!"

"Ish." I rolled my eyes at her. She's really evil.

Silence came in. No one spoke which made the atmosphere weird. Well, weirder!

"Thank you, guys." I looked at them. "For telling me this."

"Tae didn't tell you this because he's afraid that you'll stop him from working." Mina explained. "Which can be a possibility."

"I will not." I smiled. "If that what he wants, then I will let him."

"Even if it's for you?" Chae added.

I nodded, "I think that he loves what he does and he has deep passion for it."

"Passion for making coffee?" Tzuyu raised her eyebrows.

"We will never understand the mind of a squirrel." Nayeon put her arms around my shoulder.

"Yeah right, bunny." We all laughed.

"C'mon, guys, we have to arrange these now!" Mina said. We all helped each other in arranging the clothes. Tzuyu became our model and Chae became our photographer for the night.

"Nabongs, why don't you sell some of your lipsticks?" Jeong suggested.

"No! I won't! These are too precious!" Nayeon grabbed her lipstick set and hugged it.

"How about you, Sana? Your perfumes?" I hesitated. I love these perfumes so much and these were given by my parents. But then, they could just buy me more.

"Uh..."

"For Tae?" Jeong neared Tae's polaroid. Where did she get that?

"A-Alright--"

"I'm just joking!" Jeong laughed. We didn't laugh, but Chae did. Jamless brothers. "You don't have to, Sana. I know that you collect perfumes and those are too precious for you."

"More precious than Tae?" Jihyo smirked.

"Of course, Tae is more precious!" I yelled. I was proud, okay?

"If you say so." Tzuyu smirked as well.

"Just go back modelling those clothes, yoda!" I told her.

"What? Did you just call me Yoda?" Tzuyu pointed herself and I nodded.

"Why Yoda?" Mina asked.

"Because when you tuck Tzuyu's hair behind her ear, she will look like Yoda." Momo explained. "Wait, who's Yoda?"

Dahyun smacked her, "The little green alien in Star Wars." She answered.

"This will be a looooong night."

TAE'S POV

"Why are you here?" Jeonghan asked me as soon as I stepped on the coffee shop.

"I'm going to work." I told him and walked towards my locker.

"What? Are you stupid?" He unbelievably said. "You just fainted here yesterday night!"

"I did not." I told him. "I fashionably went out of balance and laid on the floor with my eyes closed."

"What?" He crossed his eyebrows. "C'mon, don't be stubborn, Taehyung. I will be blamed because of your stubborness!"

"Look, Jeong. I am fine. I can walk, see?" I even turned around to let him see that I am fine already.

He sighed in defeat, "Alright. But this time, be responsible of what will happen to you, okay?"

"Yes, sir!" I saluted. He just shook his head when he walked away from me.

This night will never be ruined!

Sana admitted that she loves me! This is heaven!

I really want to ask her to be my girlfriend earlier, but I want my proposal to be grand. I want all of my friends to be there. I want to let the world how much I love that woman.

My phone rang and it was Mina, so I answered it.

"Good eve, Mina!" I happily greeted her.

"What's with the tone?" She chuckled. "Hey, Tae, Sana knew that you're working."

"W-What?" How about my proposal? How about my earnings?

"But she told us that she will let you do what you want." She answered. Wait, I am getting confused right now. "Sorry if we told her about that."

"So you were the ones who told her about this?" I asked her. The other line became silent.

"Y-Yes," Mina's voice cracked. Shit, she's going to cry! "I-I'm so s-sorry, Tae--"

"Ssh, Mina. Don't cry. I'm not angry." I tried calming her. I don't want her to cry. "Mina, don't cry, please." I am going to panick!

"I-I am really sorry. W-We should've k-kept quiet." She might burst out anytime. Why is this girl so fragile? How can Jin calm her in times like these? Seriously.

"Mina, I swear, it's fine." I assured her.

"R-Really?"

"Yes. Please don't cry."

"I-I'm sorry again, Tae."

"Ssh, stop crying. You should be having fun with the girls right now." I told her. "Stop crying, okay?"

"O-Okay."

"Okay. Please watch over Sana for me."

"You c-can trust me."

"Okay. Bye."

"Bye." And then I ended the call. A customer came in so I put my phone on the pocket and asked her order.
